Cut the burger buns in half
Mix the mustard and mayonnaise to make a sauce and season with salt and pepper
Slice the gherkin, onion and tomato
Wash the salad leaves

Grill the onion rings too
Toast the buns on the grill for one to two minutes
Spread the buns with the sauce and layer the burgers

Cooking tips

Place the moulded burgers in the fridge for half an hour or even overnight. This reduces the risk of them falling apart when grilling. Once you have placed the burgers on the grill, turn them as late as possible. This makes them less likely to stick to the grill. Make sure you have all your ingredients ready before you take the meat off the grill. This will keep the burger warm for longer.
